Phil Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 So i thought i would post a few pics of some of my jumbo sized goldfish. I love these guys and the ryukins are very cute. This is Cheeseball, he measures in at about 15cm: This is McLovin, he also measures in at about 15cm: And here is Blackie and Cheeseball, blackie is one of my 2 25cm black moors. They are in an aquarium at the moment but will be going out into the pond soon: Cheers Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beano Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 LOL! Oh my god, how do you keep those from floating up to the top? I've never had success with fancy goldfish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted September 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 I dunno, they dont have any difficulties swimming. May depend on the quality of the fish that you have tried. From what i have noticed, the fancy goldfish farms in china vary greatly in fish survivability and quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beano Posted September 24, 2007 Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 As a rule I hate goldfish, but Black Moores I have a soft spot for... they just don't live very long when I'm taking care of them though. Always seem to get swim bladder problems. Maybe I had them in too small a tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted September 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 LOL as a rule i hate goldfish aswell. But i do like them when they are big and especailly if they are cute. When they are big they look like they have a personality, so i just get real big ones. And big black moors are cool!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbies Betta Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 I LOVE goldfish. they're one of my fav cold water fish. I've had a GF for bout 3-4 years now. he lives in the pond and I've called him Gus, cause he used to eat anything we gave him, my dad even used to swat flies and hand feed them to him he's a fantail with teh bumpy head thing going on like his brain is growing out of his head. everyone hates it, but I love it. I usually go out and pat his "brain" in the mornings. have been trying to breed him with a white fantail female we have in the pond to, but they're choosing to breed amongst the otehr GF in tehre :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuckie Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 your GF's name is Gus and "he" lives in a pond? Took me a minute... I like the blue orandas and black moors, but other than that goldfish tend to... offend me a little. I don't really like it when animals are so selectively bred that they have trouble functioning comfortably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beano Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 I don't like those ones that look like they have to "waddle" through the water... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbies Betta Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 I don't like those ones that look like they have to "waddle" through the water yeah see, I find it kinda cute, but the fish has to swim properly through the water, otherwise I find it just kinda off putting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
